With the Kansas City Chiefs resurgence, it is appropriate to remember Otis Taylor. When I looked up his records, I was stunned to learn that he isn’t in the Hall of Fame.
I just assumed it was a done deal, considering he was an elite receiver in his day. His signature touchdown in Super Bowl IV definitely is Hall of Fame worthy.
“Otis made my job easy,” former Chiefs quarterback and Hall of Famer Len Dawson said. “If you got the pass to Otis, you knew he’d catch it.”
Taylor deserves to be in the Hall with Dawson.
Otis Taylor is a great athlete that should be in the NFL Hall of Fame. He also played Basketball in college and we were on he same team. Basketball helped him have great hands for catching the Football, He made John Wooden’s all 1970’s Team.
